FOKEWORD. 



My "Register of the Descendants of'Abner Stan- 
ford, THE Revolutionary Soldier," appeared in 1898 as a 
kind of circular letter to encourage relatives to inquire and 
investigate about genealogical facts immediately and easily 
accessible to them, that they might contribute material additional 
to that in the Register, as well as correct its errors. The title 
was too comprehensive for the scope of the work, as it dealt 
only with descendants of Abner by his second wife. To all 
who are interested in these, the Register will be found still 
valuable, for its appendix and chart. It may be found in the 
Boston Public Library, the Genealogical Library, at Boston, 
the State Library, at Concord, N.H., and in several other 
large libraries, as well as in certain small (New England) ones. 

The present volume contains so far as has been possible 
to secure, all descendants of Abner. Omissions and errors are 
to be expected, and it is earnestly requested that any who 
detect these will kindly call the compiler's attention to them. 

A great debt of obligation is gratefully acknowledged to 
Edmund D. Barbour, Esq., who unhesitatingly placed his 
valuable manuscript covering the subject in which I was in- 
terested, repeatedly at my disposal. Li a majority of cases I 
have personally verified or corrected his material or contribut- 
ed fresh matter, by examination of original records or by 
meeting or correspondence with individuals. His great work 
on the Barbours, in several large volumes, deals with the 
Stanfords from 171 2 onward- — since by the marriage of David 
Stanford and Lydia Morse, the Stanford and Barbour families 
were related. But, nevertheless, it has seemed to me that 
there is a useful place for such a volume as the present, 
along side the much larger and far more comprehensiv^e one, 
because the present work will be within the pecuniary reach 
of all who may have any desire to possess it, while possibly 
the greater one may not. 



FOREWORD. 

There was no definite purpose to publish at this time ; in 
fact, publication is quite accidental ; ior it was expected to 
obtain considerable more original matter, first, from members 
of the family, with whom the writer had begun to get nicely 
in touch ; but circumstances led to a visit to the Orient, where 
wholly unexpected leisure led to a sudden decision ; if the anti- 
cipated increment comes later, it may be feasible to include it 
in an appendix. 

Acknowledgment of much valuable assistance is due Miss 
Emma Frances Harris, and to the many other generous 
members of the family, who have done so much to make this 
volume what it is.

STANFORD GENEALOGY, 



STANFORD is an ancient surname dating back to the 
Saxon Chronicles, in which it is found. It belongs to the class 
of nature-names, and is composed of two elements — staii mean- 
ing stone, and/(9n/, a river-crossing. Originally, we may con- 
jecture, one Thomas lived by a river where there was a shallow, 
stony bottom, or where there was a series of stepping-stones, 
like those at Ambleside in the English Lake District, over 
which passage was made ; from this casual circumstance, he 
was designated as Thomas at or of or from or by the stone 
ford ; and then, by degrees, arose the name Thomas Stanford. 

Stanford became an English name from the Anglo-Saxon 
rather than from the Norman, contribution to the total of 
English surnames. At the present day, it is quite a common 
name in England, where it may be found in the directory of 
almost any large city. A recent directory of one of these 
cities, had eleven Stanfords. The directories of American 
cities also show that it is not a rare name \\\ the United States, 
where it has been found almost from the very beginning 
of English colonization. There were Stanfords in Maryland 
very early in its history, and descendants of these, under 
other names, are to- day among the most prominent citizens of 
Massachusetts, Louisiana and other states. The Stanford 
family, a part of whose genealogy is given in this volume, 
dates back in New England history, to within about a score of 
years of the landing at Plymouth. From about 1650 to the 
present there seem to have been Stanfords at Falmouth or 
Portland, Me. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries 
there were Stanfords at and about Ipswich, Mass. Quite a 
number of Stanfords were in the Revolutionary War Among 
these were several, as Moses, of Natick, Joseph, of Packers- 
field, now Nelson, N.H., and Abner, of Upton, who belonged 
to the family, a portion of whose genealogy is here given.* 

* For the military record of these, and other Stanfords, in this war, see 
" Soldiers and Sailors of the American Revolution" published by the Comraon- 
wealth of Mass.

TANFORD GENEALOGY. 



These Stanfords are supposed to have descended from Thomas 
Stanford or Staniforth, who resided at Concord, Mass., in 
1644 ; how much earHer he was there is not known, nor at how 
early a date he came from England, but he removed from 
Concord in the above year. As early as 1652 Thomas and 
Robert Stanford are recorded as owning land at Falmouth 
Neck, Me., and these names are prominent in the history of that 
place during the next thirty- five or more years. It is supposed 
this Thomas Stanford, of Falmouth, was Thomas Staniforth, of 
Concord, and that he removed from the latter town to Maine. 
From historical notices, it seems probable that the Maine Stan- 
fords and the Ipswich Stanfords were related. 

In the records of the First Church at Charlestown, we 
find a Thomas Stanford, ' Thomas, ye blinde man,' who ' own- 
ed the covenant,' and so with all his family, was baptized and 
recorded on the parish register. By this we learn that he was 
at Charlestown in 1 680, and it is a proper inference that he 
was there previously. He married Widow Sarah (Crouch) 
Jones, and died there about 1695, while she survived till 1707. 
From this ' Thomas, ye blinde man,' the descent of the Stan- 
fords recorded in this volume, is absolutely clear and demon- 
strable, link by link, without a break. The first link, however, 
connecting Thomas, of Concord, with Thomas, of Charles- 
town, assumed to be a son of the former, while highly probable, 
yet must be regarded as problematical, until further investiga- 
tion shall throw more light upon the subject. 

Among the children of ' Thomas, ye blinde man,' was 
David, the oldest, born in 1680, at Charlestown ; while a )'oung 
man he removed to Natick and then to Sherborn, where, 
in 1 71 2, he married Lydia Morse and settled down ; they had 
a large family of children, mostly born at Sherborn, and 
(o among them was Caleb, born there in i-7T?}r; he married Ruth 
Cozzens, about 1740, and spent a good part of his life at 
Sherborn, where his children were born ; in 1773 and the next 
few years, several of his children emigrated from Sherborn to 
Dublin, N.H., where new land was obtainable. He and his wife 
appear to have gone with these emigrants, and, eventually, to 
have died at Littleton, N.H., or Concord, Vt., to which places 
some of his children had removed, attracted by new land open- 
ed for settlement. Among the sons of Caleb were Joseph, 
born in 1745, and Abner, born in 1747. The former was a 
Minute Man for Peterboro, N.H., serving three days ; later, he 
enlisted from Packersfield. The latter with his descendants by 
two wives, forms the subject of this volume.

ABNER STANFORD AND HIS 
DESCENDANTS. 



Abner Stanford' {Caleb ^ David, "^ Thomas," Thomas^) 
b. at Sherborn, May 12, 1747, m. at IMendon, Nov. 24, 1768 
(int. there Feb. 17, 1768), Jemima Green, of Mendon, b. at 
Upton, Jan. 30, 1749, dau. of William Green and Hannah 

. At marriage he was said to be of Mendon ; in the 

intention we find Mrs. Jemima Green, but this does not occur 
in the marriage record, and was doubtless a slip for Miss, as 
she was not twenty years old. Their marriage was " con- 
firmated by Joseph Dorr, Esqr."* They settled at Upton 
which was his home until 1789 or later. At an annual town 
meeting Mch 6, 1786, it was " voted : to choose a committee 
of fifteen to divide said town into school districts " ; the committee 
reported in favor of six districts, and the inhabitants allotted to 
each are gi\'en. Abner Stanford appears in District No. i . or 
" Rawson's District," of which Joshua Rawson and Wilson 
Rawson were members ; all the other districts had at least 
twenty-one families, while No. i had only ten. This was 
really a part of what should have been the north district, but 
as the number of families in the north greatly exceeded the 
number in any other district (east, south, central and west), 
ten were set off in a special district, with their own school. 
{See Upton Records, III. pp. 68, 6g, go). Abner thus lived in 
the north part of the town. He enlisted in the Revolutionary 
War, Apl 27, 1775, as corporal in Captain David Batchelor's 
company, Col. Joseph Reed's regiment (2Cth), credited to 
Upton. He was at Roxbury, Oct. 24, 1775, and served for 
Upton practically all the time from the beginning to the end of 

* Joseph Dorr, Esq , was a justice of the peace, who was chosen Sep. 28, 1774, 
a delegate to the Provincial Congress, at Concord, Oct. 11, 1774. He was S(;u 
of the Mendon minister of the same name and became, later, a judge.

the war in 1783. He was a three years' man in the Continen- 
tal Army, mustered into Captain Japheth Daniels' company, 
Col. Thomas Nixon's 5th, later 6th, regiment Apl 21, 1777. 
He was on the pay roll of this company from Apl 17, 1777 
to Dec. 31, 1779 and on the clothing list for five years from 
Jan. I, 1778 to Dec. 31, 1782. He was in camp near Peek- 
skill, Feb. 16, 1779, and at the Highlands, Je 12, 1779. He 
re-enhsted in 1780 for during the war. In 1780 and 1781 he 
appears in descriptive lists as thirty-three years old, six feet 
tall, with light complexion, brown hair and blue eyes ; one 
list was dated ' Highlands, Feb. 23, 1780 ' ; the other, * West 
Point, Jan. 29, 1781.' He apparently was corporal until Nov. 

I, 1 78 1, when he was reduced. From Jan. to Dec. 1781 
his company was in Lt. Col. Calvin Smith's regiment and he 
was a private when the return was made. He was on furlo 
Dec, 1782. He appears on two statements of continental 
balances. He also is found on a company return of Col. 
Nixon's 6th regiment for arears of pay, delivered Mch 10, 
1784. There are seven autograph signatures by him in the 
Mass. state archives. He took part in the capture of Gen. 
Burgoyne at Saratoga, Oct. 17, 1777. His discharge was at 
New Windsor, N.Y., June or July, 1783. Facts about his 
connection with the Revolution may be found in the Pension 
Office, Washington, the State Flouse, Boston, the records of 
Worcester County, Worcester, and in the town records of 
Upton. There are thirty-eight cards in the Mass. archives 
referring to him, and at least fourteen references in the Upton 
records. See History of Worcester Comity, by Hurd, Vol. 

II. p. gio, Chap. 122, Upton, by Win. T. Davis ; Phila. iS8g. 
See also Mass. Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolutionary War, 
compiled by tJie Secy, of the ConimonwealtJi ; Boston, i8g2, etc. 
He was pensioned at eight dollars a month by the United 
States. 

Joel, his last child by Jemima, was b. at Upton, Je 
27, 1788 ; between this and 1796 he separated from her and 
went to Peterboro, N.H., where his name is on the invoices for 
1796 and 1797 and where he resided until about 1799. He 
next removed to Dummerston, Vt , where, Nov. 24, 1800, he 
m. (2) Sarah Mackentire, " late of Peterboro." They lived at 
Dummerston until about 1807 or later, when they are said to 
have gone to New Boston, N.H., and thence to Chesterfield, 
where his name is on the town records for 18 19, and where, 
about Apl of that year, he died ; tradition says he was buried in 
the old cemetery back of the town house. He lived about

two miles from the center, on the Winchester road, on the 
hillside to the right of the road, in what is now a pasture 
partially grown up to wood ; the cellar hole is still there, within 
sight of the barn now standing on the place where his son 
Willis lived and died.* 

After their separation Jemima continued at Upton until 
her death Je 5, 1818. She doubtless made a home for 
Joel and some of her other children, during much of that 
period. The fact that Joel very soon after his marriage, 
settled at Upton is probably to be accounted for by supposing 
he did so to make a home for his mother in her latest years. 

Sarah went to live with her oldest son, Duncan, at West 
Fairlee, Vt., sometime after 1819 and m. there, 1833, Israel 
Gould, son of , and father of her }-oungest child, 

* Despite repetition, it may not be amiss to insert the following, which 
appeared, as part of " A Chapter of Stanford History,"' in The Peterboro (N.H.) 
Tratisaipt, Nov., 1905. The first sentence refers, by implication, to Abner's 
older bro, Joseph. Incidentally it may be slated here that the latter, altho a 
Peterboro ^linute iMan, is omitted from the list of Revolutionary soldiers \n 
Smith's History of Peterboro. 

" Abner Stanford, the next younger child of Caleb, was born at Sherborn, 
May 12, 1747, but did not remove to Dublin with the rest. He married at 
Mendon, Mass., Nov. 24, 1768, Jemima Green, settled in I'pton, Mass., where he 
reared a large family, and from there entered the army Ap il 27, 1775, and 
served almost uninterruptedly, until his discharge in the summer of 17S3. His 
name in this connection, appears repeatedly on the books of Upton, in the 
county and in the state records. There are thirty eight c.irds relating to him in the 
state archives, Boston, the substance of which will appear in the monumental series 
of " Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors of the American Revolution." along with 
the facts about Joseph Stanford, when that series reaches the letter S. The 
notices of Abner include two descriptive lists, and refer to some half dozen 
autograph signatures on the originals. He was then a corporal, thirty-three years 
old, six feet high of light complexion, witli brown hair, blue eyes, enlisted for 
" during the war." 

" He was subsequently pensioned by the United States, as per record in the 
Pension Office at Washington. At Dummerston, Vt., it is recorded that Abner 
was married (2d) to Sarah Mackentire of Peterboro, N.H., (one of the good old 
Scotch-Irish stock that played so large a part in the early history of the town) 
It is also staled that their son Duncan (Jesse D.) was born at Peterboro, N.H., 
Sept. 26, 1798. An older sister, Clarissa, was probably born at Peterboro in 
1796 or 1797. The name of Abner Stanford is on the Peterboro tax lists for 1796 
and 1797, but not subsequently. The invoices previous to 1796 have not been 
found, and we have no evidence how early Abner came to Peterboro, except that it 
was probably after June 27, 17S8, when his son Joel, by Jemima, was born 
at Upton. 

" It is not our purpose to go into the history of Joseph or Abner in detail or 
to follow them to their death, but simply to show their connection with 
Peterboro.

selectmen for the town ; for it is said that Duncan deeded his 
farm to the town on condition he should be allowed the use of 
it for a home so long as he lived, and on condition he should be 
aided by the town in case he required such aid. At the 
annual town meeting March i, 1859, it was "voted to refer 
the matter of taking Duncan Stanford's farm, to the select- 
men." The selectmen's report covering 1859, says : " we have 

purchased the Stanford farm Balance due on the Stanford 

farm, $ 292.83." At the annual town meeting, March 5, 1861,

the selectmen were appointed " a committee to settle with 
Duncan Stanford " for the above balance. At the annual 
meeting, 1862, the town voted to secure the selectmen from 
all legal liabilities " for giving a warrantee deed of the Stanford 
farm and for their paying over the money and interest for one 
year." Presumably if Duncan had elected to live on his farm, 
he could have spent the rest of his days there. It is said that 
Sarah was discontented and persuaded him to move to Lyme, 
and that then he wished to get the value of his farm from the 
town, but this was not granted. He went to Lyme about i860 
and lived there until about 1874, when he returned to West 
Pairlee, and died there Oct: 28, 1875, t.r., at the house of 
Loren Spaulding, near Berry's Corner, Blood Brook. He was

Samuel d. at Winchester, in the Summer of 1868, and was 
buried there, without stone. Samuel's marriage to Mrs. Ruth 
(Turner) Elgar is not among the Northfield marriages from 
1843 to 1866. The most definite testimony by one who knew 
them both, and who entertained both on one occasion, is : 
" Samuel lived at West Northfield or Northfield Farms, where 
his daughter Mary, a girl about sixteen years old, kept house 
for him. He used to go with this Ruth then, and there was a 
son, Henry, by Ruth, born at Samuel's house about 1852, not 
long after Elgar was killed by a fall in his gristmill." As we 
have seen, he d. somewhat earlier. Elgar was the son of 
Wm. L. and Sophronia Elgar, He d. there of dysentery, but 
was buried at Winchester. Oct. 13, 1848, Chas. Elgar, son 
of Wm. L., a miller, and Ruth Elgar, was b. at Northfield. 
Ruth is said to have d. at Westmoreland, N.H., about i88i-2.

existence of this son appears more impalpable than 
that of the preceding. One might wonder that the first 
family of children know nothing about these, but 
the genealogist finds more than one parallel case. 

* No record of these births appears at Northfield where Samuel and Ruth 
lived, and where the children were most likely born.

at Winchester, Nov. 22, 1S06, dau. of Elijah Adams and Aman-

She died at Keene, Oct. 30 (31, t.r.), 1857, and was buried 
there in Washington Street cemetery, with stone. He m. (2)

either Nelson or Dublin — probably the former), Apl 14, 18 19, 
dau. of Abraham Stiles and . 

Oct. 17, 1857, Willis bought a small homestead at West Keene, of John 
W. Binney and mortgaged a part — one acre and a hundred twenty-four square 
rods, on the south of the Chesterfield road, to secure a note for §200, loaned by 
Levi M. Adams, of Keene. This land extended from the corner of Chauncey B. 
Billings' land along the Cheshire railroad, along John Elliot's land and along 
Billings' land. The mortgage deed was signed by Willis and Elinda. Aug. 
29, 1863, Adams assigned this mortgage to C. H. Stanford, to whom Willis on 
Aug. 21, 1863, in consideration of ftioo. received from C.II.S. and of his assump- 
tion of the $200. note and interest, had quit-claimed this land. 

On Mch 29. 1858, Willis and Laura, for -S350. paid by Chas. Carter, of 
Keene, deeded him two acres with buildings, on the west side of the road to 
Westmoreland. 

Oct. 17, 1864 Willis and Laura, of Keene, for $1200. sold Chauncey B. 
Billings, of Keene, their homestead on ihe mrth side of West Street, containing 
about two acres, — tlie same land as that sold to Willis by Isaac Rand, Jan. 4, 
1849 ^""^ ^Ich 18, 1850. About this time they bought a farm of fifty-two acres 
at Chesterfield, about two miles from town, on the Winchester road. His name 
first appears on the tax lists in 1866 and then continuously until his death. 

He d. there Mch 17, 1884, of asthma, and was buried at

Wrantslow Stanford {Abncr,^ Cahb,^ David'; Thoiiias^- 
Thomas^) m. at Thetford, Dec. 4, 1834, by Rev. Jacob P. 
Huntington, Christiana Gould, of Thetford, t.k., b. there Nov. 
21, 181 1, dau. of Israel Gould and Martha Sargent. 

They lived at Thetford when first married, probably on the bluff, at 
Sunnybeam, on the Israel Gould farm, now owned by the Burrs ; later at West 
Fairlee, near the lake (where the present creamery stands), on the ^^'ilmot estate ; 
possibly he lived within Post Mills line. They next moved to King Hill, \Yest 
Fairlee, and were neighbors to Duncan Stanford. The record of this purchase is 
in vol. 4, p. 446 of the Land Records at West Fairlee. Rensalier Rovvell, of 
West Fairlee, sold Christiana Stanford, of Thetford, for i?22o, thirty-three acres 
of land, lot 6 range 6 (south-easterly third) bounded by land of Duncan Stanford, 
John P. Southworth, Alden B. Collcott and by the highway (on the west) from 
James Fallows' place to Middle Brook— being land shortly before owned by 
Arnold A. Elliot. The date was Mch i8, 1840, but on Nov. 20, 1841 this pro- 
l^erty was deeded back to Rowell. There was a siiiall house on the premises, where 
one son, P^eeman, was born. Later the Tituses occupied this place (i'^42)- The 
cellar hole with narrow " apple cellar," is still in good preservation with clumps 
of family lilacs about it. It is north of the Duncan Stanford farm on which the 
barn, on the west side of the road, still remains {See 9) ; it is also perhaps half way 
up the hill from that place and not far below the dilapidated shack on top of the 
hill, where the old King buildings stood. Subsequently the family moved to 

Post Mills and lived in a house at the village, owned by Dea. Hinckley. 

From there Wrantslow went alone to Lowell, to secure work, leaving his wife 
and children at Post Mills. This was probably .sometime between 1845 and 
1847; for Charles Higgins, of Post Mills, says that Wrantslow went before the 
railroad at Thetford was built, on the construction of which he himself and 
Loren G. Stanford {See 71) worked in 1847-8. Afterwards he moved his family 
to Lowell, but his two older boys were " put out "' to families at Thetford. 

Christiana died at Lowell, Mch 14, 1854, and was buried 
there in Edson cemetery, with stone. He m. (2) at Lowell, 
Aug. 6 (Aug. I, T.R., a mistake), 1854, by Rev. Eben B. Foster 
(Cong'l), ElizabethLongley.b. at Shirley, Je 10, 1818, dau. of 
Elij ah Longley and Betsey Stone. See Chandlc} 's Hist. Shirley. 

They lived at Lowell until 1S59 or i86o, wjien he moved his family to 



STANFORD GENEALOGY. 

Lunenburg, while he worked at the Wason Car Shops, Springfield. His nanie 
is on the tax lists at Lunenburg for iS6o and l86i. May 6, 1862 they bought 
a farm of eighty-two acres, in the easterly part of Chelmsford, on the county 
road to Rillerica; Apl 11, 1871 they sold this, moved to Lowell and from there, 
in 1873, to Chicopee and then, 1875, back to Lowell. 

lie died there Apl 29, 1876, of pneumonia, and was buried 
there in Edson cemetery, in the family lot (lot 1 1 range 45), 
with stone. He Avas a carpenter and worked continuously for 
the Merrimack Man'f g. Co., at Lowell, for twelve years, wlien 
because of poor health, he made a change and soon went to 
farming ; he had weak lungs and ' old fashioned consumption,' 
with occasional hemorrhages. After some years of \'ery hard 
work on the farm, they decided on account of his poor health 
and for the sake of affording the children better educational 
opportunities, to return to the city. From 1 871 until within 
a few years of her death, she was a boardinghou.se keeper at 
Lowell, Chicopee and again at Lowell. She died there Oct. 1 1, 
1892, of heart failure, and was buried in the family lot, with 
stone. Her last years were passed at the home of her daughter, 
Anna. They attended John St. Cong'l. Church, Lowell, of 
which she was ahnost a lifelong member. 

1. Loren Gould, b. at Thetford, Jan. 2, 1835. 

2. Freeman S., b. at West Fairlee, Aug. 14, 1840. 

He enlisted at Bradford, Sep 25, 1861, for three years and served in the dis- 
astrous Peninsula Campaign inaugurated and bungled to a conclusion by that great 
cunctator, McClellan, whose Fabian policy inured to the benefit of his enemies. 
Freeman was mustered into company B, si.xth regiment Vermont volunteer infan- 
try, at Montpelier, Oct. 15, left with his regiment on the 19th, for Washington 
and from there, on the 24th, for Camp Griffin near Lewinsville, Va., where pre- 
smnably the winter w-as passed, during which the regiment suffered terribly from 
typhoid fever, diphtheria, measles and mumps. It was joined to the second, 
third, fourth and fifth Vermont regiments to complete the Vermont brigade 
which in the original organization of the Army of the Potomac, was in Gen. 
William F. Smith's division of the fourth corps under Gen. Keyes; but upon 
organization of the sixth corps. May 16, 1862, the Vermont brigade was the 
.second in the second division, in this corps, under Gen. Smith. The sixth regiment 
broke camp Mch 10, 1862. to begin field work in the Peninsula Campaign; it first 
met the enemy at Warwick Creek, Apl 5, and shed its first blood, without loss of 
life, the next day. The battles in which it participated from Mch to July, were 
Warwick Creek, Apl 5, Lee's Mills, Apl 6, Williamsburg, May 5, Golding's Farm, 
Je 27, 28, Savage's Station, Je 29, White Oak Swamp, or Bridge, Je 30 ; it also 
probably engaged in the siege of Yorktown, Apl 5 — May 4; it was thus in the 
Seven Days' Battles before Richmond, some of the severest contests during the war. 

Gen. Wm. Buel Franklin (1823-1903) says of this terrible week : " My 
experience during the period generally known as ' the seven days,' was with the 
sixth and second corps. During the whole time between Je 26 and July 2 there 
was not a night in which the men did not march almost continually, nor a day 
on which there was not a fight; some men fell by the wayside and were captured; 
they had no food but that which was carried in their haversacks and the hot 
weather soon rendered that uneatable. Sleep was out of the question and the 
rest obtained was while lying down awaiting an attack or sheltering themselves 
from shot and shell."

Freeman was attacked by diarrhea at this critical junc- 
ture, the disease became chronic and he was removed from 
the front to the U.S. GenL Hosp. at Newark, N.J., which he 
entered Aug. 20; he died there Oct. 4, 1862, and was buried 
in the Greenwood national cemetery at Fairmount, near New- 
ark, in the soldiers' plot, with stone uniform with those of 
other soldiers. He was unmarried.

volunteer infantry, for three years, and was mustered 

in on the same day. 

The regiment was composed of ten companies, A lo K, from Middlesex 
county, and in June, took up quarters at Camp Cameron, Camljridge, left for war 
Aug. 17, 1861, and was stationed at Fortress Monroe from vSep to May, 1S62, 
when it was the first Union regiment to march into Norfolk, Portsmouth and 
Suffolk; it joined the Army of the Potomac, at Fair Oaks, |e 13 and shed its first 
l)lood Je 18, in Woodland Skirmish. " I can trust them anywhere," said Hooker 
of this regiment at this time; it was fighting at Peach Orchard, Je 25 and at 
Glendale, Je 30. " There is no doubt that at Glendale, the sixth Mass. saved the 
army," wrote Hooker to Gov. Andrew; it was at Malvern Hill, July I, Brislow 
Station, Aug. 27, Second Bull Run, Aug. 29, 30, Fredericksburg, Dec. 12-14, 
" where Northern blood drenched the banks of the Rappahannock " ; then at 
Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, July 2, 3, Wapping Heights, Locust Grove, July 18, 
Mine Run, Barker's Store, and a part of the battle of the Wilderness, May 5, 1864; 
it was attached to the second army corps, fourth division, second brigade of the 
Army of the Potomac. 

Albert was mustered out July 27, 1864, he and seventeen others being the 
only original members of the company who completed the full term of enlistment. 
Before going to war he was an operative at Lowell and to this work he returned. 

He married there May 13, 1865, by Rev. Amos Blanch- 
ard (Cong'l), Nancy F'uller Howard, t.r,, b. at Washington, Me., 
Apl 5, 1847, dau. of Rev. Francis Howard (Free Baptist) and 
Hannah Linscott. They lived at Lowell. In the Autumn of 
1S67, he went to California " to better himself," and worked in 
a grain store, at San Francisco ; she was to come out in the 
Spring; she arrived Apl 2, 1868, but had become disaffected 
and estranged, and, after twenty days, left on Apl 22, by 
steamer, for New York, " with her trunk marked Annie 
Fuller." They had no children. She is said to have m. (2) at 
Buffalo, N.Y., Apl 11, 1870, Theodore DeForest Deland, a 
mechanical engineer, by whom she has one son, Clyde C~)smer, 
b. at Union City, Penn., Dec. 27, 1872, an artist who lives with 
his parents at 4429 Osage St., Phila. 

Albert was soon lost to his friends, but in 1875, Overseer Taylor, of the 
Tremont mills, Lowell, who was going to California, was asked to inquire for 
him ; he met him at Carson City, Nev. His father, his sister, Anna, and his bro, 
Arthur, wrote him and he replied from Carson, by a single letter, in 1875 ; in 
1876 he wrote once, from Wadsworth, Nev., to Anna; in 1877 he wrote once 
from Cornucopia, Nev., to his parents; and on Je 10, 1S78, he wrote from Mill

City, Cornucopia, Elko Co., Nev., to Anna, since when nothing has been heard 
from him. In that letter he spoke hopefully of returning home : " will be back 
thereby Thanksgiving or Christmas, if nothing happens to prevent"; he also 
mentioned an uprising of the Bannock Indians, who were on the war path and 
had already killed several white men ; arms and amunition had been distributed 
by the Governor, and one party had left there that night for the front and another 
was gomg. Possibly he was killed l)y the Indians.

She attended the Edson grammar and the high school at Lowell, but 
graduated at Abbot Academy, Andover, where she was a teacher about two years, 
until marriage. His first schooling was at Chelmsford, but later he graduated 
from the Green grammar and the high school, Lowell, entered Dartmouth 
College, then the sophomore class at Amherst College, where he graduated 
B.A. in 1S82 and received the degree of M.A. in 1886; he graduated B.D. at 
Yale Divinity School, in 1885, and pursued a postgraduate course of one year 
there in 1886. In the summer of that year he received appointment as a m.is- 
sionary of the American Board, to Japan. He was ordained at the First Con- 
gregational Church, Lowell, of which he and his wife were members, Sep 15, 
1886. They sailed from San P>ancisco, Oct. 19, and arrived at their station, 
Kyoto, in mid-November ; for nine years he was professor of Old Testament 
exegesis and literature in the theological department of the Doshisha; she 
engaged in evangelistic work among the churches, with more or less teaching in 
the Doshisha girls' school and elsewhere; on return from furlo, they resided at 
Tottori, iMatsuyama and Kobe, where both taught in Kobe College for girls, of 
which she was acting principal for two years. They have traveled in Hawaii, 
Korea, Northern China, to Pekin atd the Great Wall, Shanghai and Southern 
China, Hongkong, Ceylon, India, Egypt, Palestine, Europe, etc. They studied 
some months at Berlin, during their furlo, where he matriculated at the Univer- 
sity of Berlin and took courses under Weiss, Baethgen, Strack and others. In 
1903 his health became seriously impaired, necessitating a return from Japan to 
the United States. The summer of 1904, they spent in Ireland, Scotland and Eng- 
land, largely in the open air, with much walking ; they tramped over the English 
Lake District for five weeks, in which Mrs. Stanford's walking record was three 
hundred and forty miles and Mr. Stanford's, three hundred and eighty. Upon 
their return, they made their home at Auburndale, where Mrs. Stanford became 
superintendant of The Missionary Plome, established some years ago by the late 
Mrs. Walker. In the Spring of 1906 Mr. Stanford went to Japan for a few 
months, as director of a party of tourists.

Fifty years ago all these Mass. towns were busy liives for the boot and shoe 
industry, and a large proportion of the inhabitants was engaged in it ; in the town 
clerk's records for those years, a man"s occupation is more likely to be given 
' boot- maker,' ' leather-cutter,' or the like, than anything else. A similar condition 
may be found today at Washington and neighboring towns, in Maine, where 
everybody has gone to making staves for lime casks. But the entire disappearance 
of the boot and shoe luisiness in these Mass. towns, so that, at present,'a visitor 
would receive no faint suggestion of this flourishing enterprise, is one of the strik- 
ing phenomena of economic and social changes necessitated by the constantly 
developing industrial life of the nation— phenomena of much interest to the 
sociologist as well as to the economist.

He lived in Milford, where he died of heart disease, Aug. 19, 
1885, T.K., and was buried there in Vernon Grove cemetery, 
in the VViswall lot, without stone. 

He was named Lawyer by his parents and his birth is so 
recorded at Milford ; tradition says that his father, Joel, upon 
the birth of this son, wrote to his bro, Lyman, and that the lat- 
ter requested him to name the boy ' Lawyer.' Lyman himself 
had alread}' given this name to two of his own sons {See 3). When 
Joel's son reached the age of maturity, tiring of the embarass- 
ment under which such a name repeatedly placed him, in 1835, 
by sanction of the legislature, he added his father's name, and 
thru life used onh' the name of Joel. He was a shoemaker, 
and later a general jobber. It was our privilege to meet his 
widow a very short time before her decease ; she was a well- 
preserved, well-informed, cheerful, sunny old lady, whose ex- 
cellent memory served me well. She d. at the age of S/yrs. /m. 
i8d. They were members of the Methodist Church. 

The following notices appeared in the Milford papers : 

Mrs. Hannah Maria Stanford, for eighty-seven years a resident of Milford, died 
this afternoon at x.50 o'clock, at her home at 112 East Main street, from old age. 

Mrs. Stanford was born eighty-seven years ago in the house on East Main 
street, now occupied by E. Gilardi, as a market. This house is almost within a 
stone's throw of the house in which she died. During her entire life Mrs. Stan- 
ford lived there. 

She was the daughter of Otis Kilbon and Catherine Albee (Sanborn) Kilbon, 
and has, for many years, lived in her old home, with her daughter, Mrs. Jennie 
M. Stanford, as a companion. (Jne sister also survives. 

The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon, at 2 o'clock, from the late resi- 
dence, with burial in VernOn Grove cemetery. — Daily News, Feb. 15, 1906. 

Mrs. Hannah Maria Stanford, a life-long resident of Milford, died about noon 
to-day, at her home, 1 1 2 East Main street, of diseases incident to old age. 

She was born in Milford, June 28, 181S, very near the residence where she 
died, and left one daughter, Mrs. Minnie M. Stanford, and one sister. 

Deceased was the daughter of Otis and Catherine [Albee] Kilbon, and widow 
of Joel L. Stanford.

Mrs. Hannah Maria, widow of Joel L. Stanford, died suddenly at her home 
on East Main street, yesterday afternoon about 12.30 o'clock. She had been 
ailing for a few days, with the grippe, which, with her advanced age of eighty- 
seven years, proved fatal. She was born, June 28, 1818, and married Joel L. 
.Stanford just nineteen years later. She was born in a house near the one in which 
she died. A daughter, Mrs. Minnie Stanford, and one sister, Mrs. Mary E.

STANFORD GENEALOGY. 

b. at Winchester, Je i8, 1833, dau. of Charles Reed and Eme- 
line Blanchard ; he lived at Vernon and South Vernon ; July 
25, 1.862, he enlisted, for three years, as musician in company 
E eleventh Vt. volunteer infantry. 

He left Braltleboro with his company, for Wasliington, Sep 7, where they 
remained until the Summer of 1863 ; in June, Hannah had a letter from him 
there, saying he was a nine montlis' man, ther<^by intimating his purpose to 
desert. It is said tliere was no need for increased infantry, wlien his regiment 
went to Wasliington, and it was kept there comfortably quartered until the 
Summer of 1863 ; then the call was for artillery and the plan of turning his 
regiment into that, is assigned as a possible motive for George's desertion ; shortly, 
a second letter came from Maryland, saying he was in the woods at work for 
Mr. Eaton, tliat he was to be known in future, as Charles Gordon, that she should 
be ready wiih the children, as he intended to come for her; but she heard no 
more for two or three years, when she learned he had married the daughter of 
Thomas Nash, a planter at Marriot'sville, Md., and had a boy about two years 
old. He m. Miss Nash at Marriottsville, Md., Mch — , 1864, arid the child was 
born there Feb. 27, 1865. Charles Gordon left his home May 5, 1866, to visit 
his relatives at Winchester, N.II., where he seems to have spent a considerable 
time ; he is said to have told his wife that " he was going north to see his sick 
fatlier who lived in New York." He did not return to Maryland until Jan. 29, 
1867. While he was in southern New Hampsliire and Vermont, Hannah was 
securing a divorce at Brattleboro, thru her attorney, Howe ; it was granted for 
desertion, at the February term, 1867. Gordon's long absence from Maryland 
was the occasion of correspondence failing into the hands of liis wife and her 
father, which awakened their suspicions. Mr. Nash wrote several times to 
Hannali; in Mch, 1867, Mr. Nash and his daughter, severed all relations witli 
Charles Gordon and sent him away. It is said he was seen at a hotol in Chicago, 
Nov. I, 1869, by his old friend, Payette Streeter, of South Vernon ; Gordon was 
then employed by the hotel. Notliing further was ever known of him, altho a 
rumor, of well-known species, has it that he has since called at the doors of 
various old friends in New Hampshire, asking for a drink of water, without 
making his identity known, and that notice of his death not many years ago, 
was seen in a local paper.

Sawtell, b. at Urattleboro, about 1821, son of Martin Sawteli and Sarah, by whom

cousin, b. at West F'airlee (King Hill), Nov. 18, 1835, dau. 
of Jesse Duncan Stanford and Eunice Whitcomb. They 
lived at West Fairlee and at Lowell ; they separated about 
Feb., i860 {See 43) and he m. (2) at Northport, Aug. 30, i860, 
by James Lancaster, J. P., Maria Louise Pendleton, b. at 
Northport, Aug. 20, 1827, dau. of Capt, Amos Pendleton 
and Jennie Farnsworth, of Northport, t.r. 

They became acquainted at Lowell, where she had gone to work in the 
Merrimack mills, soon after the breaking up of her home, by the death of her 
father, in 18157. From Northport, they drove far up into the wilds of Maine, to 
a hamlet called Patten, where he settled, Sep. 6, 1862, and began the practice of 
medicine; he soon became a very successful and popular homeopathic physician 
at Patten and for miles around. Patten is, today, a smart little village, but it 
is still " a jumping off place " — into the woods. What must it have been in 
1862, only Iwenty-two years after Lorenzo ^^'adlin and others, petitioned the 
court for incorporation as a plantation — No. 4 of range 6, assigning as a reason 
that they were " upwards of forty miles from any town or organized plantation 
by any possible road," and they found it rather inconvenient, and expensive 
going to vote. Dr. Stanford began housekeeping in a couple of rooms over a 
store, in a shack of a building, which was at once his home and his office. They 
had desperately hard work to keep warm some of the time in winter, and their 
stock of furniture was limited ; yet his wife has said that she was never so happy 
in the home of comfort where she was reared, nor in any home of her own 
since, as she was during those first early days of getting a start. A man's life 
consists not in the abundance of his possessions. He first appears on the tax 
list in 1863, when they had settled cosily in their own home ; for he was assessed 
for a house, stable, office and lot, at % 650, as well as for a horse and a cow. 
With this modest little home on Parsonage street, they lived happily and 
prosperously with his enlarging practice, for but little over five years, when he 
was thrown from his carriage to the frozen ground, while on a professional visit 
into the country, in the autumn of 1867 5 he sustained internal injuries to the 
liver and had frequent hemorrhages until his death, Mch 29, 1868; he was 
buried with masonic orders, at Patten and has a stone. Citizens there today 
who knew him well, speak, with emphasis, of the marked impression he made 
on the community and of the high esteem in which he was held. Doubtless for 
a large per cent of his success, his wife was responsible. They had no children. 
She has lived at Patten ever since. She m. (2) there, Dec. 16, 1869 (int. 

Dec. 10), by D.E. Benjamin, J. P., Daniel Lord, Jr. b. at Brownville, 1828, 

son of Daniel Lord and Hathorn, t.r. He was a horseman, stage driver, 

etc. He d. there Apl i, 1897, of dilation of the heart, and was Ixiried there 
with stone. There were no children.

He became a lawyer in 1849, '^"t ^^ter three years practice at Port Washing- 
ton, Wis., the gold fever was irresistable and he went into the diggings in Cali-

at San Francisco [Sec 84)- He rapidly became a popular and influential leader 
in politics, business and public enterprises. He was a delegate at the convention 
in Chicago, at which Abraham Lincoln was nominated for the presidency, and he 
was elected Governor of California in 1S61. He was one of the great war- 
governors on whom Lincoln leaned heavily for support and counsel. T'ar seeing

and shrewd, with a keen eye for the development of the Pacific Slope, he ad- 
vocnted a transcontinental railway, and became president of a company formed 
in lS6l, for its construction. Tiie stories about his personal supermtendence of 
the construction and about the number of miles of track he laid in a day, are well 
known. He also helped to construct other railroads, and he soon became known 
as " the railway king." 

Shortly after the death of their only child in 1884, tliey determined to 
found a university as a memorial of that son. It is related that when consider- 
ing this matter, they visited Harvard University. After having been shown all 
about, Mr. Stanford suddenly inquired what such a university plant was worth ; 
when he was told, it is said that Mrs. Stanford, eagerly grasping his arm, ex- 
claimed with that intensity and ardor so characteristic of her : " we can do it, 
Inland, we can do it ! " He was twice elected to the United States Senate, from 
California, 1885 to 1S97, but died during the latter term, at Palo Alto, and was 
buried there. After his death a question arose as to whether he had not defrauded 
the United States in some of his railroad transactions. The question was carried 
to the courts and Mrs. Stanford was cut off, temporarily, from the use of most 
of lier income. It is said that she was allowed only one thousand dollars a 
month. She had been contributing largely from her current income, to the 
resources of the University, and it would cripple the institution seriously to have 
that contribution cease; she resolved to give the bulk of what was allowed her, 
to the University, saying, " I have seen the time when I had to live on $100. a 
month, and I can do it again." Her interest in orphanages and hospitals is well 
known. But the founding and endowment of the Leland Stanford, Jr., Univer- 
sity, at Palo Alto, where their fine estate was located, will be the lasting memo- 
rial above all others, to perpetuate 'their names and ensure enduring gratitude 
from the public. After his death, her interest and generosity towards tlie 
University was unflagging, and on her death, the bulk of her fortune went to it; 
this institution has become one of the most richly endowed seats of learning in 
the world. 

Beside their large country estate at Palo Alto, they had a magnificent resi- 
dence on Nob Hill, at San Franscisco, popularly referred to as the Stanford 
Palace. This was destroyed in the great earthquake and conflagration of Apl 18, 
1906.

Mr. Titus, ill personal appearance, reminds one of Chas. R. Stanford {See 59)

brothers. Frank is a fine looking man, of florid complexion, with bright, spark- 
ling eyes, a long, sandy mustache, hair not heavy and a cross between white 
and .sandy; he remarked that he got his sandy hair and beard from his grand- 
mother, Eunice (Whitconib) Stanford {See 9), who was a little woman with a\iburn 
hair. He is short of stature, of quick movement, having in the middle face 
features .-omewhat rescmliling his father's; full of fun and good nature, completes

•"" The two T.R. of her marriage are discrepant; one .states that she was 
born in France, in 1S60, but that her parents were born at Brunswick, Me.; the 
other gives no birthplace lor her, but assigns Canada as that of her parents, and 
has 1864 ^s tlie year of her birth. J^oth records stale that it is her second 
niarriage. Mr. Titus gave 1-loia Ellen Kaymond as her maiden name— perhaps 
K.iyniond was her first luLsband's name— but she is Flora Devoe and Flora Titus, 
in the records, and her father's name is Devoe. 

t This return gives the parents as Franklin 1'. Titus and Flora E. Titus, and 
ni.ikcs Iheni resident there ; she was h. in France, 1S60.

He is an eccentric man, with an abnormally intense contempt 
for titles, whether of nobility, of scholarship, or of a military 
or naval character. His creed is : all men are free and equal 
and I am as good as any other man in all these United States, 
and a great deal better than those fellows who presume to stick 
titled handles fore and aft their names. The thought of an 
American girl marrying an English, French or other noble- 
man, disturbs his mental composure more than a red flannel 
shirt that of a Spanish bull. He served in the Union army ; 
he is a storekeeper at Woonsocket, South Dakota.

Dr. Adsit is an enthusiastic horoscopist, but he has at- 
tempted to work out an astrologicobiblical syncretism, in which 
the Chaldean and Egyptian principles are made ancillary to the 
supremacy of Christ. By a study of the Adamic Laws and 
those of Fate and Destiny he casts your horoscope and lays 
open to your vision your supposed destiny and character.

* I le quoted from an Adsit family Bible record. From a genealogical point 
of view It is unfortunate that the custom of our ancestors has fallen largely into 
desuetude and family records are not generally kept. Even to-day in Massachu- 
setts, where from the beginning, such satisfactory official records of vital statistics 
have been kept, a birth, at least, fails of record, every now and then ; much more 
fails of lofiicial record in many other states.
